Savanna LMDW 60 Years HERR 2006

The reference in Savanna HERRs and the quintessence of the Grand Arôme profile. Intense, unique - an experience.

Liked by some, but for me the smell, aromas and taste are really awful. Liquid Hubba Bubba bubble gum and a barrage of artificial-looking aromatics immediately trigger headaches and negative associations for me. I do not have to have, for me completely disgusting and undrinkable. 3.9 because then comes "drinkable" in the ranking, which it is definitely not for me.

Sehr intensives und komplexes Profil mit einer beeindruckenden Mischung aus reifer Frucht, Würze und markanten Esteraromen. Am Gaumen dicht und vielschichtig, dabei dennoch präzise strukturiert. Der lange Abgang verbindet Frucht, Holz und leichte Bitternoten und zeigt, wie kraftvoll und ausgewogen Savanna sein kann.

On the nose it is spacey, flooding the room with its scents of strawberry/big babol, melon, pineapple, banana, maracuja and other tropical fruits in addition to the esters/ripened.On the palate the ripened/ester, some roasted, strawberry/big babol, melon, papaya and pepper linger on the long, intense finish (I can't find the maracuja note that others mention). Abv integrated well, but not very rounded, the big babol note covers everything else a bit and I don't like big babol in general(hence the low rating, although objectively it remains a great rum). A unique candy in the empty big babol glass, esters and mild roasted. Thanks to Hendrick's for the opportunity.

RumX Rarities jour 3 et petite dégustation Savanna. Explosion de fruits au nez, mirabelle, abricot, ananas alcoolisé, esters mais aussi du bubble gum et un côté fermenté un peu moins agréable. Explosion de fruits en bouche aussi, ananas alcoolisé, mirabelle, melon trop mûr. Puis un étrange arôme de chewing-gum mâché trop longtemps, de fermenté et de fraise chimique. La finale est longue avec des arômes très Savanna, chewing-gum, camomille et dentifrice à la fraise et au menthol. Un rhum explosif 🧨, super intéressant, original et avec beaucoup de personnalité. Goûté en parallèle avec “Blanc” et il est beaucoup moins agréable mais goûté seul il est délicieux.

A heavenly Lord. Brutal. To the point!

Little Savanna GA & HERR cross tasting: Holy F - this is pure HERR essence on the nose. Plenty of esters. Fruity chewing gum and menthol. Intense and positively weird. Excellent. On the palate, this one is just as much of a weapon as on the nose. Intense esters providing ample of tropical fruits and strawberries. Very adstringent. The wildness in this one really sets it apart in the line up and puts it very much up there on the „HERR essence scale“ if you‘d like.

Bester Savanna.

the #3 from the Rarities calendar. A real board! In the GA profile, I've often noted red fruits (strawberries, sour cherries, sometimes red fruit jelly). I don't find that here, but I do find a nice passion fruit note. A real unique selling point in this respect. Chewing tobacco and spices on the palate. There is smoked bacon on the finish.

Ein Monster! Unfassbare Nase, lang im Mund. Erdbeerjoghurt. einfach einzigartig!

A Savanna Grand Arôme to the extreme, very intense aromatically. The nose is extremely fruity, with notes of ripe tropical fruit and red fruit, notably strawberry. There's also a strong chemical side, reminiscent of a candy like Tagada Strawberries or Harlequin candies. This medicinal side of polish and ferment, almost chewing-gum-like, is accompanied by a discreet woodiness and an impression of fruitcake. A truly interesting olfactory facet of Grand Arôme. The attack on the palate is very intense. There's a chemical and synthetic sweetness, boosted by medicinal notes and accompanied by very ripe exotic fruit. Subtle spices and oak add balance to the profile. The alcohol is extremely well integrated. This is a heavy, aromatic and concentrated profile, but with great finesse in its flavors. The finish is interminable and equally concentrated. Fruit comes to the fore, with melon in particular, but also a medicinal and vanilla touch. A superbly well-crafted profile, rich yet masterful. Great liquid art.

Geschmacksexplosion. Wie der Japoniani nur nochmal alles extremer. Mir zu hochgedreht. Einen Hauch mehr Süffigkeit würde ich mir wünschen. Hat aber seine Fans.

Wahnsinn, eine Fruchtbombe!

absolute Granate. definitiv einer der besten HERR's die es gibt. wahnsinnig geiles Erlebnis und zurecht im Olymp der besten Savannas. Überreifer grüner Apfel, vergorene Ananas und Erdbeere, Zimt Marshmallows und Kamillen-Tee mit etwas Wick Menthol Bonbons und einer intensiven Säure Struktur wie von Grünen granny Smith Äpfeln, danach dann die Kamille und dann dezent scharfer Zimt und Wald-Erdbeeren. Geiles Zeug!

Uiuiui, schöne Granate hätte ich behauptet. Aber meines Erachtens schafft er es leider nicht ganz den Savanna Blanc Paris vom Thron zu stürzen in meinem Ranking, aber nur hauchdünn dahinter. Leider ist der Preis das ausschlaggebende was mich abhält, hier nachlegen.
